Abstract
An alternative to the use of inactivated or attenuated whole organisms or recombinant proteins as vaccines is the use of plasmid DNAs which encode the desired vaccine antigen. Genetic vaccines and delivery of drugs to specific tissues have two great challenges: 1-Delivery of sufficient quantities of RNA or DNA to develop immune responses against specific vaccine targets and side effects p…

Abstract
All species of the malaria causing protozoan Plasmodium possess gene families which encode antigens that are translocated to the hosts infected red blood cell. In Plasmodium falciparum, the var gene family encodes the PfEMP1 proteins which function as ligands that lead to the sequestration (cytoadherence) of the infected red blood cell in deep venules. Adhesive properties were also recent…
